The man page for the file /etc/hostname.ep0 isn't exactly obvious, but it
does exist: `man hostname.if`
The page talks about what the /etc/hostname.xxx does, xxx being the
interface name that appears during boot, or from other configuration, such
as ep0.

Some major relavant online pages are:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=hostname.if&sektion=5
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=hosts&sektion=5
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=resolv.conf&sektion=5
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ifconfig&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html

And for seeing what's up:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=netstat&sektion=1

The OpenBSD documentation is very very good. It's one reason why I prefer
using OpenBSD in my day-to-day server workings. I hope the above pages
can get you started.
